Hosted and produced by Shu Bartholomew, On The Commons is a weekly radio show dedicated to discussing the many issues surrounding mandatory homeowner associations, the fastest growing form of residential housing in the nation.
 
Conceptually communal living may sound positively Utopian.  Under ideal circumstances, in an ideal world, there may be an outside chance that association living might have a shot of working – for a brief period of time.  But as we all know, circumstances are hardly ever ideal and never for prolonged periods of time.  The architects of this newfangled housing plan obviously did not take into account human nature, greed, outside influences when they came up with the blue prints for what has become residential America.  If they thought about it at all, they did not plan for all the problems that would undermine the structural integrity of a massive housing implosion.
 
On The Commons this week we are joined by Marjorie Murray.  Marjorie is the founder and President of the California based Center for California Homeowner Association Law.   The core purpose of the Center is to protect the rights of homeowners through consumer education, training, and referral services.   The Center maintains a website that is rich with information every American property owner should have access to.   Please join us On The Commons this Saturday, We’ll talk about the programs they have, the training sessions they hold, discrimination in associations and legislation.
